    Hello Robert, You've done a really fine job on the model. I'm very impressed with how well your lapstraked planking looks. Are you using the Ancre monograph (Boudriot and Berti)? I ordered my first Ancre plans set on the Cutter Le Cerf, which also has lapstraked planking. But, I was thinking about also ordering the Le Coureur also. I'm not sure why, but I really like the look of the lugger rig. Or, maybe it's just the look of this particular vessel. However, Le Coureur is only available in French and my French is not so good. But, hopefully, I'll just watch your build log and maybe I will be able to figure out the plans. Clare

    Wow, Karl, this is an incredible build. I don't think I saw this the first time around. It's going to take me a while to absorb all that detail on your model. Do I understand correctly that this is 1:36 scale? And, my apologies if I missed the information, but what wood(s) are you using? Wonderful and inspiring work. Ausgezeichnet! (Admittedly, I had to look up the spelling) Clare

About the NRG

If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.

The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.

The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
